Travel Day Cut Short–no need to travel in risky conditions. . .

the misty rain began within 15 minutes of getting on the road,but still nothing to be concerned about. . .

our first checkpoint. . .they asked if we were both citizens and waved us through. . .we saw quite a few border patrol riding along the dirt road running along the fence line. . .at this point, we are only a stones throw from the Rio Grand and Mexico,but are unable to see either. . .

our first stop of the day is Seminole Canyon State Park. . .where there is lovely RV Parking provided out front of the Visitor Center.(I had checked on Google Earth before we ventured down there)

we viewed the canyon from the overlook. . .but would love to take the hike to the Fate Bell Shelter at the bottom of the canyon. . .in better weather of course.

I found more of the story and some fascinating images of the pictographs here. . .
